COVID-19 Vaccine Guide - Vaccine Considerations for patients with ME/CFS/FM and comorbid conditions

8 Jan 2021

For the ME/CFS/FM population, my advice is to stay safely quarantined and wait a couple of months while the vaccine is distributed and broadly administered. [...] If you decide to get the vaccine, be rested and stable prior to the vaccine, and plan on resting/relaxing for at least 72 hours afterward. [...] o We will have a better idea of how the vaccine impacts patients of all ages/illnesses over the next few months. [...] Your risk of exposure and the potential impact of COVID on your individual health conditions are important to consider. [...] The risk of getting COVID and having negative outcomes is likely higher than the unknown side effects of the vaccine.
